There still aren't any details on who is driving the challenge, nor which club the team is challenging from. Video of the team sailing the AC 45 in Auckland was followed by Neville Wittey — someone who hasn't been in- volved in the Cup — if memory serves — since '95, giving his thoughts on the new Cup format. When the press release went out to announce the challenge, a URL embedded in the release just led to a domain name placeholder. Later that day, there was at least something other than a placeholder, but there hasn't ACEA been much progress since, and there's not much more we can tell you at this point.

If it had, in fact, been in the works for a year and TEAM Australia will be a viable challenger, it wasn't walking the walk. It would be great to see Australia back in the Amer- ica's Cup, and an America's Cup World Series event in Fremantle or Sydney Harbor would be pretty dynamite. With a month to go before the close of the entry deadline for the 34th America's Cup, there is still a confi rmed — but un- announced — entry. At this point, there's a relative paucity of challengers for AC 34. The little teaser a few weeks back from ACEA about a potential Chinese entry may have been a solicitation more than anything; Hong Kong sailor Frank Pong, who chaired the China Team in '07, is rumored to have said "no, thanks" already to overtures to enter. The two French challengers both say that the country can't support two efforts, and Team New Zealand is not onboard yet — publicly.

  • SOUTH AFRICA Arrangements and Resources Worldwide
    Country Wildlife Response Profiles A Summary of oiled wildlife response SOUTH AFRICA arrangements and resources worldwide VERSION 15/12/2019 Introduction The Republic of South Africa is situated at the southernmost tip of the African continent and is bordered by Namibia to the northwest, Botswana and Zimbabwe to the north, Mozambique and Swaziland to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the east and south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest. South African territory also completely surrounds the Kingdom of Lesotho, situated in the east. South Africa’s 2,798 km of coastline includes numerous islands, steep cliffs, wetlands and sandy beaches. The warm Mozambique-Agulhas Current in the Indian Ocean and the cold Benguela Current in the Atlantic meet just offshore. The Benguela Current is rich in nutrients which draw marine wildlife to forage. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) include Robben Island, which is an important nesting site for African penguins, bank cormorants and swift terns nest; Addo Elephant National Park, which provides feeding areas for sharks, whales and penguins; Betty’s Bay, which also hosts breeding penguins; De Hoop where southern right whales give birth in May and June and other whales feed; Pondoland, with large numbers of whales and dolphins during winter; Tsitsikamma, where large numbers of seabirds, whales and dolphins feed; and Walker Bay which is an important resting area for southern right whales and calves from July to November. Offshore the Agulhas Front, iSimangaliso, and Orange Shelf Edge MPAs provide feeding grounds for turtles and albatrosses. At Risk Wildlife In this section, some individual wildlife species are mentioned followed by a letter in parentheses.

  • An Observational and Modeling Analysis of the Landfall of Hurricane Marty (2003) in Baja California, Mexico
    JULY 2005 F ARFÁN AND CORTEZ 2069 An Observational and Modeling Analysis of the Landfall of Hurricane Marty (2003) in Baja California, Mexico LUIS M. FARFÁN Centro de Investigación Científica y de Educación Superior de Ensenada B.C., Unidad La Paz, La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico MIGUEL CORTEZ Servicio Meteorológico Nacional, Comisión Nacional del Agua, México, Distrito Federal, Mexico (Manuscript received 20 July 2004, in final form 26 January 2005) ABSTRACT This paper documents the life cycle of Tropical Cyclone Marty, which developed in late September 2003 over the eastern Pacific Ocean and made landfall on the Baja California peninsula. Observations and best-track data indicate that the center of circulation moved across the southern peninsula and proceeded northward in the Gulf of California. A network of surface meteorological stations in the vicinity of the storm track detected strong winds. Satellite and radar imagery are used to analyze the structure of convective patterns, and rain gauges recorded total precipitation. A comparison of Marty’s features at landfall, with respect to Juliette (2001), indicates similar wind intensity but differences in forward motion and accumu- lated precipitation. Official, real-time forecasts issued by the U.S. National Hurricane Center prior to landfall are compared with the best track. This resulted in a westward bias of positions with decreasing errors during subsequent forecast cycles. Numerical simulations from the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model were used to examine the evolution of the cyclonic circulation over the southern peninsula. The model was applied to a nested grid configuration with hori- zontal resolution as detailed as 3.3 km, with two (72- and 48-h) simulations.

An application to develop 1850 housing units on the 110 ha property was first made in 2006. An Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA) of the proposed development was undertaken by ACRM at the time, in which 13 archaeological sites, including scatters of marine shellfish, ostrich eggshell, stone flakes and pottery were documented. The footprint area for the proposed development has now been substantially reduced to 36.6 ha, while the number of housing opportunities has been scaled down to 472 units. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed development was completed in 2010, with the submission of outstanding information on the final Environmental Impact Report submitted to the Western Cape Department of Environmental Affairs and Development Planning (DEADP) in March 2012. Authorization for a reduced development footprint was subsequently approved by DEADP in July 2012.
